Last Wednesday evening, we hosted a Building Community happy hour to introduce the new Arts on the Block studio design to our industry partners. AOB studio crew presented their works in progress, shared their donor opportunities for the studio build out, and led a mosaic workshop for the event attendees. Our design team shared their vision for the new studio design with renderings and a virtual reality experience so everyone could walk through the new mosaic studio.

Thank you to all our friends in attendance for your excitement to get involved, and to our engineering partners GPI for joining us on this project. We’ll be reaching out to new partners throughout the summer. Please reach out if you’d like to learn more.

Special thanks to the many Full Circle Committee event volunteers, the Happy Hour Committee for donated beverages, and Pizzeria Paradiso for donated food.
